I don’t know. It’s possible but it does look like Mindy Kaling’s production company is one of the companies involved in the show and from your link:

As in film, executive producer credits in television are also commonly applied to individuals who are involved in the production in a more hands-off capacity, such as the owner of the show's production company.

It does look like the show was created and developed by Charlie Grandy and articles seem to refer to him as the showrunner.

Additionally she did write on Veep and she was allegedly integral to some of The Office's most popular episodes

Imo her hate is pretty unwarranted
